By: Series: Planning (for the Natural and Built Environment) ; (1479) 12 July 2002, 16(1)Publication details: 2002Subject(s): Summary: 6rgues that government planning policy should recognise different development priorities in the north and south of England. The concept of a north-south divide is not a new one. With regards to planning needs, much of the north is still suffering from industrial decline and economic restructuring and government policy needs to reflect this, rather than offer a blanket solution for the whole country as in its planning green paper. Implementation of government planning guidance, legislation and environmental regulations also varies between the north and the south as a reflection of economic realities.
